Journal
I sewed my first book! I used two recycled hardcovers (covered in felt) and used the Coptic binding method and three signatures of hand-cut acid free drawing paper. It is designed to lay flat. It is sooo rudimentary and really just a rough draft...but it was really fun and I can't wait to try again. :)

My first notebook.
I handmade a mini notebook. The paper size are 3x5 cards cut in half.
On the back I sewed a little flower. The felt has been hardened with Mod Podge and then covered with some pink flowery fabric. I put one of my patches on the front, then punched an eyelet through and used a book binder ring to hold it all together. I am trying to find some metal book corners in Boise for the corners without the eyelet, but I may have to get those online. :)
